My Story
Hi there! My name is Rachael (she/her), and this is my first time ever doing a birdathon. If you don't know me, I'm a nerd when it comes to birds and the outdoors. I love learning new things, foraging, and slowing down by watching and listening to birds. I'm also part of the leadership team for the Feminist Bird Club DMV chapter, and am the captain of our fundraising team for this event!
I'm so excited to use my bird joy for good and raise money to support an often overlooked and vulnerable population in our community—those seeking asylum.
Please help me reach my goal by leaving a flat donation or making a pledge to support my birding efforts in this inclusive campaign. I'm currently aiming to identify 10 female birds each day during the Birdathon, so 40 in total!
Will you pledge to donate a dollar for every female bird that I find? Your support will help provide funding for critical life expenses for asylum seekers in the United States. Thank you for considering, and if you can't donate, no worries! Please instead share and spread the word.

Such fun to watch pairs of adults feeding their recently fledged babes, like a little family of blue-gray gnatcatchers. So cute!
And what made it even more fun was being with my people, aka the Feminist Bird Clud DMV chapter.
